Therapies

Our philosophy at ICIM is to continuously strive to find and learn new techniques and therapies that will help our patients reach their health goals. We have a lot of arrows in our quiver, and we are always adding new ones through continuing education well above the mandated minimums.

Nutritient IV therapyThere is no doubt that proper levels of vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and amino acids are what help keep our body healthy and disease free. Most people with chronic disease have deficiencies of one or more of these. Many of us take supplements; while many of us should, but do not. The problem is that only a percentage of the supplements we take orally are absorbed into the bloodstream, and this largely depends on the quality of the supplement. This is only complicated by the fact that many people have a compromised digestive tract, which will inherently do a worse job at absorbing and assimilating vitamins and minerals. Many supplements out there may not contain true or even pure amounts of the nutrients you think you are taking.

Our office provides these IV Nutritional Therapies:

Myer’s Cocktail: This is a combination of vitamins and minerals (vitamin C, magnesium, calcium, B vitamins, B12, and more) and it has been around for decades. This combination packs a punch but we have also added the component Glutathione to make it even more effective. This is great for chronic fatigue, boosted immune function, and mental clarity.

Major Auto-Hemotherapy: This procedure involves subjecting the blood to ozone, which helps oxygenate the blood and boosts the immune system.   Ozone is simply a concentrated, more powerful form of oxygen. It has three atoms of oxygen, instead of two. Pure, medical grade oxygen is run through a generator to produce, ozone, or O3.   This third atom of oxygen, when injected into the body, is released to help drive cellular energy, repair, and regeneration. This treatment is great for chronic or acute infections, degenerative conditions, or things like hepatitis, Lyme disease, herpes, macular degeneration and more. Those suffering from a compromised immune system have been known to benefit, this includes chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, or those with auto-immune diseases.

Hydrogen Peroxide IV: Your body uses peroxides to help kill and clean up infections. Infusions of hydrogen peroxide are great for boosting the immune system and aiding in respiratory conditions. This treatment is great for chronic or acute infections, degenerative conditions, or things like hepatitis, Lyme disease, herpes, macular degeneration and more. Those suffering from a compromised immune system have been known to benefit, this includes chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, or those with auto-immune diseases.

NAD IV - Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (IV NAD) therapy is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body and plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including energy metabolism and DNA repair. It may have potential benefits in enhancing cellular function, improving energy levels, and promoting overall well-being. Some also believe that it could aid in addiction recovery and neurodegenerative conditions. However, scientific evidence supporting these claims is limited, and the therapy is still considered experimental. Many of our patients love this IV for the lasting energy it provides them.  

Poly MVA - PolyMVA is a proprietary formulation that combines minerals, vitamins, and alpha-lipoic acid. This combination may have potential benefits in supporting cellular health, improving energy production, and bolstering the body's ability to combat oxidative stress.  It does so by repairing your body's mitochondria - the powerhouse of the cell, and the part most injured in chronic diseases.  This therapy is our choice for any liver or neurological issues.  Many patients have found relief from their neuropathy using Poly MVA infusions.  

IV Vitamin C - More and more research is coming out to support the use of high doses of Vitamin C to support chronic disease.  Many cancer patients notice benefits to support their traditional oncology therapies.  Patients with chronic infections like Epstein Barr (Mono), Lyme, etc... also benefit from the boost to their immune system function.

What are IV Nutrients?

One of the best ways to introduce particular nutrients into the body to be utilized properly is directly through the blood stream. There are several different therapies that are available to aid with some of these issues and boost the immune system. We use carefully formulated materials from a compounded pharmacy and follow safe and specific formulations for our protocols. Your IV could contain many wonderful ingredients, such as - Vitamin C, Magnesium, zinc, selenium, trace minerals, amino acids, B Vitamins, B12, Folic acid, and more. These are all given via infusion, much like you'd get for hydration in the hospital. Our staff is highly trained to make the experience safe and comfortable.

hydrogen peroxide IV therapy
The body uses hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for many of its functions such as protein and carbohydrate metabolism, immunity functions; as well as fat and mineral metabolism. So this is to say that our bodies are not strangers to utilizing it.  In fact, your immune cells release peroxides to help fight and kill most infections.  Hydrogen peroxide is produced by most cells of the body for many different physiological reasons. One of the most important is to produce H 2 O 2 as a first line of defense against bacteria, yeast, virus, parasites, macrophages, and most fungi.  We find this therapy to be most helpful for any kind of infection or immune dysfunction - whether chronic, or acute.  There are a variety of ways to supplement hydrogen peroxide in the body, but we use a specific solution that is delivered by IV.

 

 

What is Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy?

   

In addition to being a much needed chemical in the body, hydrogen peroxide is also known for killing germs and is traditionally used to clean wounds, sanitize homes and work stations, and for laundry. It is very important in taking care of “free radicals” that are constantly bombarding our system, by helping the immune system through killing bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast and other parasites that can be harmful to us. Hydrogen peroxide is an excellent defense barrier for our bodies!

Oral hydrogen peroxide therapy can be very irritating to the stomach so therefore, we choose to deliver a specific food grade hydrogen peroxide solution via IV into the body. It gives the body what it needs almost immediately!

What can Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy help with?

 

Some illnesses that can benefit from IV therapy using hydrogen peroxide include:

  • temporal arteritis
  • shingles
  • chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • Yeast syndrome
  • Various viral infections, including AIDS
  • Sluggish thyroid
  • Arthritis
  • Autoimmune Disease
  • Emphysema
  • Lupus erythematosis

Medical Research about Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy

According to Ron Kennedy, M.D. Santa Rosa, CA...

"The effect of singlet oxygen in the human body is twofold. It kills, or severely inhibits the growth of, anaerobic organisms (bacteria and viruses that use carbon dioxide for fuel and leave oxygen as a by-product). This action is immediate, on contact with the anaerobic organism. Anaerobic bacteria are pathogens, the organisms which cause disease. All viruses are anaerobic.Aerobic bacteria (those that burn oxygen for fuel and leave carbon dioxide as a by-product — as humans do) found in the human intestine are friendly bacteria, which aid in digestion. These organisms thrive in the presence of hydrogen peroxide.The second effect of hydrogen peroxide is that it provides singlet oxygen, which, in turn, transforms biological waste products and industrial toxins into inert substances by oxidizing them. This makes them easy to handle for the kidneys and liver. It doubles the rate of enzymatic metabolism in the mitochondria within each cell, thus enabling the body to cleanse itself of toxins and still have plenty of energy to handle the business of living from moment to moment. This increase in metabolism probably accounts for some of the antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral effects of hydrogen peroxide." Read More...

 There is relatively no pain or side effects to having hydrogen peroxide IV therapy. Of course, some people find having an IV to be uncomfortable, but beyond that you should experience no pain.

Unfortunately, this treatment is not yet accepted by insurance so any expense is the patient’s responsibility. Patients usually experience the most benefit from several doses. We encourage you to contact our office with questions or to make your appointment.
